Fall Surgery

Fall 2016 Surgery Team

Surgery team #27 arrived at the Santa Cruz hospital on September 3rd, 2016 to prepare for a week of free surgeries to patients from all over Bolivia. A total of 62 patients received life-changing surgeries, with some patients having two or three different procedures done at the same time! Surgeons removed gallstones, repaired hernias, performed hysterectomies and pelvic floor repairs, and removed ovarian cysts. Patients who had suffered for years with their problems went home with new hope!
